Planning to Visit the Philippines Soon?

There are hundreds of tourists attractions in the Philippines. But as a lover of the Island of Marinduque (Home of the Morions and Heart of the Philippines), I am indeed partial to its beauty, charm and its friendly and hospitable residents. Therefore, help me achieve my dream of seeing this island becomes a world tourist destination, by telling all your friends and relatives about this site. Welcome, to you all, new readers and faithful followers of this site! The photo above is Poctoy White Beach in Torrijos, Marinduque with beautiful and majestic Mt Malindig in the background. Some of the photos and videos on this site, I do not own. However, I have no intention on infringing your copyrights.

Welcome Nisha and Farewell Barbara Simpson

Last March 6, Barbara officially introduced Nisha her replacement to the residents at our happy hour.  Nisha said she was born in London, England but have been a resident of Martinez, California for over 40 years. She told us she has 3 boys and have been in private business. I googled her and here's what I found from her LinkedIn page.


I was introduced to her briefly during her first day here at THD. My first impression is that she is a People Person and would have empathy to Senior Citizens. I am hoping that more improvements in our quality of life here at THD are in the horizons during her managership:

Speaking of Enhancement/Improvement of Quality of Life: My friends and Dinner Companions have the following suggestions:

1. Improve Monotony of Food Service by Featuring Monthly Special Dinners of Ethnic Foods
2. Organized a Resident Council to Improve Communication
3. Fixed the Bus, For More Excursions and Resident Participation


Meanwhile, May I remind you that Barbara's  Farewell Party will be on March 27th. A special appetizers of Filipino Lumpia and Señorita Bread have been ordered. 

I want to thank Barbara and Jenny and Upper THD Management the Improvements here at THD since my move here almost three years ago.

1.  The installation of Sound Boards at Newton's
2. The addition of Always Available Food Items in our Lunch and Dinner Menu
3. The convenience of Paying rent via Door Loop
4. The Beautification of the Grounds and Improvement of Churchill Pub and Fireside Lounge

My Personal thanks to all the Staff:  Servers, Kitchen Crew, Front Desk, Activity, Housekeeping and Maintenance Crew for making my almost three years of residency here at THD a happy one.   
  
Lastly: to All Residents who read My Blogs: If you have Additional Suggestion that will enhance our Quality of Life, send them to me. I will be happy to relay it in person to THD Management or via my daily blogs.

David - A heard the pool will remain under repair for at least three more monthss! Besides being an eyesore, there are some residents who are much disadvantaged without the pool. Phil

Hi David, I just read post below nd I appreciate your suggestions for enhancing our quality of life here at THD. I have met Nisha, and agree with you that she is definitely a people person. She seems warm and friendly, and I sense that she is happy to be here.

I also enjoyed your tribute to Barbara Simpson fo rher long and dedicated service here at THD. Thanks also for the heads-up for the farewell party for her on the 27th. I'm hopeful that Carol and I will be there. David, you really make a positive impact here at THD. Thanks for being you!
